He believed in the capacity OF the people Tor
selfgovernment as did his political teachers; and
what he believed and ayOwed as right and just
he carried out with intense earnestneSs and en-

his country, hater of oppression, a true friend
of the,people, and a condt inner of all shams and
limitations of corrupt government, hearty
friend TO the Union of the states and deadly Zoe
TO Capitalization. His administration OF the
Federal Government covered one OF the most i'm
